Good words. I have never understood, why a sentence like

“Oh, eh, oh!”
Copyright (c) miniGandalf, 2008

can bring money for 70 years after my death to my relatives (oh, nice!), but a technical invention like 3D screen can me bring money (and will be protected) only for 20 years.

Copyright law is intended to protect a special art of mental work, and not with the interest of the man kind. Is is simple not appropriate for the new technologies.

They allow it because its not the same thing. This is a straw man, they should be asking:

If you had a machine that could make an exact copy of a company car would you allow employees to make a copy and take it home?

Its a totally different question.

Trading Standards should investigate them!!!!
Anyhow all they can do is harvest IP address’s which is a long way from identifying anyone, bit of bluff going on there possibly?
